Abstract: Techniques and architectures for measuring available bandwidth. A train of probe packets is received from a remote electronic device. A per-packet one-way delay (OWD) is calculated for at least two packets from the train of probe packets. An OWD threshold value is calculated based on the calculated OWD for the at least two packets from the train of probe packets. A packet pair is selected from the train of probe packets based on the per-packet OWD for each packet in the packet pair exceeding the OWD threshold value. An estimated available bandwidth is computed based on one or more transmission characteristics of the selected packet pair.

Abstract: Techniques and architectures for measuring available bandwidth. A train of probe packets is received from a remote electronic device. A network transmission delay for at least two packets from the train of probe packets is measured. Network congestion is estimated utilizing the at least two packets from the train of probe packets. An estimated available bandwidth is computed based on the network transmission and estimated network congestion. One or more network transmission characteristics are modified based on the estimated available bandwidth.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method, apparatus, and system for identifying packet batching within computer networks. A method consistent with the present disclosure includes sending a probe train of packets to traverse a network path within a computer network. Next, identifying a contiguous set of packets that traversed the network path with a negative DIAD time. Further, classifying the contiguous set of packets as a packet batch when a packet that traversed the network path right before the contiguous set of packets traversed the network path has a positive DIAD time. In addition, a size of a next probe train of packets that are to be sent to traverse the network path can be adjusted based on the size of the contiguous set of packets. Accurately identifying packet batching can enable more precise computer network bandwidth estimation and network traffic engineering solutions.

Abstract: Example embodiments relate to providing efficient routing in software defined networks. In example embodiments, an indirect group table includes a first group entry that is associated with a first route tree in a software defined network, wherein the indirect group table affects a plurality of forwarding table entries associated with the first group entry. A failure is detected in the first route tree during a data transmission, and a notification of the failure is sent to a remote controller device, where the remote controller device identifies a second route tree that does not include the failure. After the remote controller device updates the first group entry to be associated with the second route tree, the data transmission is performed using the second route tree.

The method includes detecting a MPTCP subflow having a first IP address as a source address and a second IP address as a destination address, wherein none of the gateways is the source or the destination of the MPTCP subflow; associating a third IP address with the MPTCP subflow; and advertising, to at least one endpoint of the MPTCP subflow, the third IP address.

Abstract: In an example, memory register interrupt based signaling and messaging may include receiving, at a control register of a receiver, a signal number from a sender, and copying, by a memory register interrupt management device of the receiver, the signal number to an associated status register of the receiver. Further, memory register interrupt based signaling and messaging may include generating, independently of the signal number from the status register, an interrupt to a central processing unit of the receiver, and triggering, based on the interrupt, an interrupt handler of the receiver to perform an action associated with the signal number.
